Every pregnancy is different. During my first pregnancy, I had no symptoms, except for the fatigue. I never even got nauseous. It turned out to be a wonderful, easy pregnancy and I have a beautiful and perfect baby boy. There is nothing to worry about - just enjoy the fact it's easier this time around. Sounds like you deserve it from the first pregnancy.
hi Shannon,
I think that everything is ok. I also was sick when I was pregnant with my daughter. And I could not stand any smell from the kitchen, I had vomiting few times during the day. The point is that my "sickness" started in the beginning of the seventh week.
My sister, who have two kids, with the first had to stay in bed until the end of the sixth month, with the second one had no " sickness" and was able to work almost until due date.
So, don't worry.
Best wishes to you and your family:)

HI,
I think you are just worried probably for no reason. My first child I had no symptoms other than being tired and so fourth but on into it my nanny's were sore but no sickness what so ever and he was a healthy baby boy. My second child was different. I was nauseated alot and believe me I new she was there. You are only 6 wks, it's really to early to tell to much. You may not have any of the same symptoms as your first child and that is ok. It doesn't mean something is wrong with the baby. You need to have a positive attitude and try not to worry so much. Everything will be ok.
Good Luck

Shannon - maybe it's a different sex baby. I was not sick at all with my only pregnancy and I had a boy. My girlfriend on the other hand had a girl first and was VERY sick. She recently had a 2nd child and had no morning sickness symptoms at all and delivered a boy - Go figure. I hear this alot. Please don't worry -just check out any fears you have with your DR so that stress won't make you ill. Shari
I felt better when I was pregnant with my first baby than I did my entire life. I was energetic and happy, and I felt wonderful!
I was sicker with my second than I'd been in my whole life. I went to my Dr. and told her to either "fix it or take it out!" I couldn't even keep water down. Thankfully it only lasted three months then I just had heartburn and acid reflux, and got sick when driving. Fun!
My third was a cross between the two. I was sick some, but not too much, then I felt great for a few months, then I had acid reflux the last handful of weeks!
Funny how differenly your own body can react to the same thing a second time! :)
Congratulations!
every pregnancy is different! i was not sick with the 1st and sick with the 2nd. both are ok. however, check with your OB if you want to be extra sure.
give it time. its way too early for most serious symptoms. anyday now you should be feeling more things if you are going to. or you just might have a comfortable pregnancy. you can always request an ultrasound at your next appt for peace of mind.
Shannon,
Congratulations! I've had two boys, I was sick he entire 39 weeks with my 1st child. Things were great with my second until about 10 weeks along then the sickenss hit me and stayed until he was born at 41 weeks. Hopefully you will have an easy pregnancy. Good Luck!
Congrats. I have 2 boys myself. I wasn't really sick with either of them. My mom told me I was prgnant with our first son. I didn't believe her, but I was. With our second, I went to bed one night feeling sick, so I didn't think much of it. My hubby said "oh, you're pregnant again." So I took a test to be sure and sure enough I was. Other than that my pregnancys were uneventful. Like you said all are different. If you are truely worried something is wrong, you should call or see your doctor. Maybe this baby wants an easy pregnancy, you never know. They have lil minds of their own. :) Good Luck with your new addition.
Hi Shannon. I want to tell you to relax honey. I have been pregnant 5 times and every pregnancy was different from feeling sick (or non at all), to food cravings (or none at all), to motion sickness and smells etc.. Try not to compare the pregnancies because no two pregnancies are alike(and neither are the babies). Congratulations to you and God Bless you and your babies.
Shannon -
I think it's normal for a soon-to-be-mommy to worry about her baby. I have three and all three pregnancies were different. I was exhausted and starved but not sick with my first child, sick but with energy with my second, and hardly sick for the first little bit then just a little tired with my third. You just can't compare the pregnancies any more than you will be able to compare the children. They will be different! If you are really concerned, talk to your doctor. But I think you will find that your baby is a-okay. Congratulations on your second! Children are an awesome blessing!

Don't worry. You are probably so busy with your current child that you don't notice the symptoms as much. I felt awful for the first 3 months of my first pregnancy and barely noticed it during my second.
Not being sick is not a bad thing. Illness is not a sign of pregnancy or a healthy baby. I am 11 weeks into my fifth pregnancy and have been sick since conception. with my first two i had one day of morning sickness around the sixth month. with the last one i was sick so much i lost my job. So enjoy this because you are to early to think you wont be sick but again that is truly not an indication of a problem with you baby.
Congragulations! Please don't worry. With my first pregnancy I was soooo sick. As a matter of fact, I was so sick that when I was 4 months pregnant I weighed 10 lbs. less than I did before I got pregnant. When I got pregnant the second time I felt absolutely fine the entire time. I don't know if the first time was a shock to my system or what. Just enjoy it. If there was something wrong with the baby then the dr. would know. Good luck! :)
Good Lord! You actually want to be sick? Thank your lucky stars. I had no sickness with my first and only nausea with my second but I have friends who were regularly worshiping the porcelin goddess. Be happy and stop stressing! (it's not good for the baby.)
Hi Shannon...First off, at 6 weeks pregnant it's still early to really feel a whole lot of symptoms, if any at all. I was feeling great my whole pregnancy with my son...no morning sickness, my skin and hair looked good, etc, etc. With my daughter,I was constantly nauseus, hair falling out and skin breaking out. I am sure you are fine....just a different pregnancy. I will keep my fingers crossed for you...Good Luck and get lots of rest if you can! :)
Crackers and No to morning sickness tea definitely helps to take nausea away. The tea has a very mild taste. I did not have to add anything in it (sugar, cream). Just be sure not to steep it too long as it can get quite strong… unless, you like really strong tea. I would recommend giving this tea a try.
